Default Thunder Chicken Down!
Went this morning and setup where that Boss Tom flew up to Roost. We set up on a T intersection in the road wit the food plot in front of us and the road running perpendicular behind us. 1st thing this morning we could hear a couple of turkeys fly down off the roost. Top Dawg gave a soft yelp and no answer. So one more yelp a little louder and he fired off. Sitting there tight and a hen walks on the side of the blind from the road behind us. She walks away and so we call again. This time 2 gobblers fire off right by each other. A few turkeys walk out the woods and start milling around the food plot. Call again and this time 3 gobblers sound off. A hen starts calling with those gobblers making them HOT. Top Dawg starts a conversation back and forth wit em. Everytime he calls all 3 would fire a gobble off. Now it sounds like they're getting further away. Call again and no response, figure that's it they're off wit their hens. Give it about 15 minutes and call again and one gobbles CLOSE. Wait 10 minutes and call again and he cuts us off about 50 yards behind us in the woods. HE'S COMING! All the sudden we could hear drumming behind us. Like someone was playing a bass. Give a quick soft yelp and he cuts us off and I thought he was gonna blow the blind over. He's right behind us. He ends up walking within 10 yards of the blind and met his end.

It's no exaggeration when I tell you it is the best looking decoy you will find. You should see it in the sunlight when the iridescence can really shine.

Well, if you like getting kicked in the groin by fat chicks for every one hundred attempts at getting laid, then it's the sport for you!!!!!!!! That pretty much sums up turkey hunting. If it were this easy, everyone would do it!!!
